JeffJeff's Bizarre Adventure S03E05: Sad-ellite

Ed's a real oddball that doesn't seem to fit in the same universe as the rest of the crew, but I do enjoy the contrast and find her antics more cute than annoying. I'm delighted that Jeff likes her.

Really looking forward to Toys in the Attic.

I thought they didn't find out Ed was a girl until towards the end of the series, I was surprised rewatching it recently that it happened so early. The live action version of Ed looked like she would have been hard to handle.

The Nazca Lines, which are real giant 2000 year old works of indigenous art : https://www.britannica.com/place/Nazca-Lines

It's an added point of sadness in the lore of the show that the calamity that fucked up earth seems to have destroyed the Nazca Lines, and the satellite misses looking at them.

I love the Nazca Lines

I love these episodes! It's a great pair that shows off the two very different faces of Bebop; the delicate, somber, and beautiful emotional delivery of the Venus episode, straight into the absurd and whacky carnival ride that is Ed (both with fantastic action!). I really can't think of too many shows that have so much range, delivered so well.

I wonder if the crew is trying to hit a specific time limit on the show length? I think it would be a lot of fun if y'all can talk a little more about the episodes and go a little deeper on what your thoughts are about specific scenes and the themes in each episode. Just the recap and reactions are nice, but I think this show holds up to a lot more discussion too. Looking forward to the next show! Ganymede Elegy and Toys in the Attic are both great episodes.
